The All Progressives Congress (APC) Working Committee in Ogun State has suspended former Governor Gbenga Daniel and Kunle Folarin over alleged anti-party activities.
The Ogun APC Director of Publicity, Nuberu Olufemi, announced this in a statement issued on Tuesday, August 19, 2025.
Olufemi noted that the Ogun APC Chairman, Yemi Sanusi, chaired the meeting held on Tuesday, with 16 members present.
Olufemi stated that the meeting considered the reports of the disciplinary committees investigating allegations of misconduct and anti-party activities against the two members in Ward IV and Ward VI of Sagamu Local Government Area of Ogun State.
He said: “Ward IV, Sagamu local government, set up a disciplinary committee on the alleged misconduct bordering on anti-party activities committed by Daniel.
“Similarly, Ward VI set up a disciplinary committee on the allegations of gross misconduct and anti-party activities allegedly committed by Folarin.
“They wrote to the members under investigation, inviting them to the disciplinary meetings at which they were to be heard and allowed to present evidence in their defence or request pardon from the party.

“However, both members failed to respond to the invitations extended to them in writing, failed to provide a written defence, and also failed to attend the disciplinary meetings at which they were to be given the opportunity to defend themselves.
“In view of their deliberate and unexplained absences, the committees deliberated as scheduled, heard from the available witnesses, considered the available documentary evidence, and deliberated on the allegations.”
The Ogun APC spokesman added that upon due consideration, the committees suspended Daniel and Folarin indefinitely, pending further investigation and the outcome of the committees’ inquiry.
Olufemi stated that copies of the letters of indefinite suspension had been sent to the state chairman for consideration and approval of the State Working Committee.
“The SWC has ratified the suspensions. The meeting demonstrates the party’s commitment to maintaining discipline and upholding its constitution,” he noted.
